Does anyone not agree that a TECHNICAL DMEO would alay a lot of fears/questions about the future of B3D?
Yes, I don't agree. There are already great demos and games out there, and it makes no difference. I see no reason to believe that combining them into one giant tech demo would change anything. The people who have fears about B3D are mainly feature creatures, people who read the feature list and how many fancy features they don't understand and couldn't possibly use have been added recently. Hell a lot of them will just overlook it because it's DX7 and they think it should be DX9 ( or 10 maybe? )
And besides, there are elements of truth to their fears. Blitz3d isn't going anywhere. It doesn't particularly bother me, but it's true, and evidently it bothers a lot of people.
